| As far as reach-schools, what percentage of the college are BIPOCs, and is diversity likely to sway your child’s decision? |

| I care. My child is interested in attending a religious college, which doesn't lead to much diversity. The lack of it is a downside to me for sure. |

Great question! But it's difficult to know. How would we know what percentage of Latino is white latino, which is not considered BIPOCs. But in general, would be comforable if white+white latino is less than 40%. Then again it's difficult to know. Also prefer having at least > 20% FGLI percentage, no matter what race. |

He was a Palestinian Jew, so that's one BIPOC. |

| My kid has crossed schools off the list because they don't have enough diversity in their marketing materials. And while visiting Kenyon, eating in the cafeteria, my kid looked around and said 'everyone here is really white' so I do think it's a factor in her decision making. We are a non-Hispanic, white family. |

I didn't know Jews were people of color. Someone forgot to let the progressive left know. In all seriousness what is BIPOC? A pale skinned white Middle Easterner is not a black American. Or a south Asian. |
